Indicate which nitrogen compound amongst the following would undergo Hoffmann bromamide reaction to furnish the primary amine `(R-NH_2)`.

A

`RCONHCH_3`

B

`RCOONH_4`

C

`RCONH_2`

D

`R-CO-NHOH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Only `1^@` amides (i.e. `RCONH_2`) in the present case undergo Hofmann bromamide reaction.
`RCONH_2 + Br_2 + 4KOH to R- NH_2 + 2KBr + K_2 CO_3 + 2H_2 O` (Hofmann.s bromamide reaction)
